摘要

This study investigates the effect of incorporating date palm fibers (DPFs) on the flexural strength of self-compacting concrete (SCC), a versatile material known for its essential ability to compact and flow without extensive external vibration. A total of six distinct SCC mixtures were prepared with different dosages of fibers. We methodically added DPFs in increments of 0.1% to the concrete volume, ranging from 0 to 0.5%. This study examined the relationship between workability and flexural strength in the composition of fibers. Experiments revealed that the inclusion of DPFs decreases the workability of the mixture. This suggests that DPFs hinder SCC’s flow properties. In contrast, DPFs enhance both bending strength and flexibility. A linear relationship between the DPFs and the flexural strength of the SCC was observed. A 22.41% increase in flexural strength was observed at a 0.5% fiber content. The most noticeable strength increase.
